Hence, the confusion. This has to be the correct option, right? Tech Support suggested that we use that option instead of "Upgrade".
So has anyone out there used it, in a single AR Server, remote SQL DB environment, especially during a patch upgrade?

It seems like this should be used if you are installing ARS on shared servers for the first time.

Install the first server as normal, creating the database tables, then install ARS on the second server with this option to install the executables on the second server, without overwriting or upgrading the database from the first install. Does that make sense?

This is supposed to preserve data [and related forms according to tech support] and simply install the executables and related files. 1. Does this work as suggested? 2. ...and newbie question of today, what exactly does "enables shared access" mean? We are not using Server groups. Share-Preserves data, installs server executables and related files, and enables shared access to the AR System database. Configure shared servers to belong to the same server group.
